I think Duncan was giving the Republican base a little "pay back" for not getting behind his campaign.

Problem with your theory (and the system) is that every primary until now has been an open primary when socialists can walk into the polls and vote for a Republican nominee. Why in the hell would you exact "payback" when you KNOW this? Why would you endorse the WORST Republican just for some semblance of vengance? I was a supporter of Duncan Hunter, and I an extremely disappointed in him. I then supported Fred, but he entered late and really failed to campaign. We now have only one candidate left... Mitt Romney. He was not my first choice, but he is far better than any of the Dhimmicrats. To sit this one out is to vote for socialism, higher taxes, another Dhimmicratic appointment to the SCOTUS, and a weak national defense!

Exactly. I didnt’t even get behind Fred until two months ago, aghast as I was at the sorry bunch presented us in our most perilous time in our nation’s history!

They call the hold-outs wishy-washy? Just the opposite. We knew all there was for us was this process of elimination.

Mitt has my vote, but I ain’t wearin’ his bumper sticker.

Your logic is the exact same logic I used to decide on Romney, only I did it eight months ago.

Not that I am psychic, but I could see that Fred just didn't have the motivation to REALLY run for POTUS.

Duncan Hunter (God love him) had the best record but was obviously too stone-faced and dour-looking for the American public to warm up to.

McCain is unstable, and he subconsciously and secretly hates the religious right for choosing GWB over him in 2000.

Uber-Christian Mike Huckabee scares the pants off me - even though I am a devout Baptist who tithes, goes to church, and 'thumps' my Bible all the time.

Secular Republicans, Jewish Republicans, and ALL moderates or Independents would understandably RUN from Huckabee in droves for fear of a Theocracy in the White House.

Guiliani? I'm not even sure WHY he is a registered Republican, quite frankly.

Which brings me back to Mitt Romney, who is a fabulous public speaker. A true intellect. Wholesome as all get-out. And a conservative in his heart to boot.

Yes, Romney made some dumb statements in the past. But in reality he pushed the conservative message and cause, if anyone bothers to check.

Welcome to the club.
